The goal of WebAssembly is to execute at native speeds by taking advantage of common hardware features available on a variety of platforms. With cloud-based infrastructure, organizations can easily scale their web applications to handle increased traffic or demand without the need for expensive hardware upgrades.

As such, one of the more common questions I get from my clients is whether or not their system will be able to endure an anticipated load increase. Or worse yet, sometimes I get questions about regaining normal operations after a traffic increase caused performance destabilization. Let’s take a look at each common resource.

We were able to meaningfully improve both the predictability and performance of these containers by taking some of the CPU isolation responsibility away from the operating system and moving towards a data driven solution involving combinatorial optimization and machine learning. We want to extend the system to support CPU oversubscription.

This allows publishers to establish a “premium” auction instead of the typical real-time bidding system. However, increasing hardware capacity doesn’t really solve the problem, and it introduces new ones. If increasing hardware is the “work harder” answer to header bidding, then “work smarter” is the better option.

A resilient system continues to operate successfully in the presence of failures. The system needs to maintain a safety margin that is capable of absorbing failure via defense in depth, and failure modes need to be prioritized to take care of the most likely and highest impact risks. The first technique is the most generally useful.

Monitoring errors on the front-end requires a bit more work because front-end performance is highly dependant on the user’s hardware, software and connection. Sentry Sentry is a bit different from the other error tracking tools in that it is open source. If you are a hobbyist you can use Sentry completely free.
